We are so excited to finally have our reservations to stay at AOA in June of next year. would it be faster to take the bus to Epcot, then catch the monorail to MK or the bus directly to MK? Is this even a possibility?”

Hi Leslie,

One of the things I love about the Art of Animation resort -- in addition to the great pools, theming and food court -- is the fact that it doesn't share buses with other resorts. There's a single bus station in front of Animation Hall with buses destined for each of the four theme parks and Disney Springs. As soon as you are on the bus, it's a straight shot to your destination.

So, I would definitely take the bus directly to Magic Kingdom. Once the wheels start rolling, you should be at the entrance to Magic Kingdom in about 20 minutes. That's just a few minutes more than the ride to Epcot, where you would need to transfer to the monorail, then transfer again at the Transportation and Ticket Center to reach Magic Kingdom.
